Getting rid of pre bankruptcy account from your credit file

Hi
I have gone bankrupt and I can recommend it 100%.:T It has taken a huge weight of my life and now I can start to plan for the future.
So with that in mind, I fully understand I am not going to be able to get any credit for a few years, no problem for me. However I was wondering how I could show that my previous credit accounts are settled on my credit report After I have been discharged from bankruptcy.
Is this a easy thing to do or is this going to be a battle. I realise that it all stays on there for six years, but I thought the faster I can get them being shown as settled, the faster I can move on completely.
Any thoughts:question:

and its pretty easy to sort...scared the life out of me but once I got the files amazed how easy it was..although it will stay on your files & drop off after 6yrs...so credit file cleanups really are only damage limitation...they wont make your credit rating any better till the BR drops off..We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will0
